DISCUSSION
KEY MESSAGE 1...
Surface high pressure continues to bring dry conditions across eastern New York and western New England through next Tuesday. Breezy conditions in the Mid-Hudson Valley continue through this afternoon with winds gusting between 15 and 25 mph, then decrease near and after sunset tonight. A Nor'easter out in the Atlantic Ocean will continue to slowly head north and east out to sea with no impacts to eastern New York or western New England through Thursday. Seasonable temperatures continue through this weekend.
AVIATION /18Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/
With high pressure nearby, flying conditions continue to be VFR for this afternoon into this evening. Few-sct high cirrus clouds from the nearby coastal Nor'Easter are off to the southeast with no aviation impact. Surface winds are generally from the north to northeast around 5-10 kts and this will continue through the early evening hours.
Winds for tonight will become light to calm for all sites. Skies will remain fairly clear through the overnight hours. It will be rather cold and dry overnight, so this should help prevent much widespread radiational fog from forming. Local terrain effects could allow for a period of fog near KGFL towards daybreak, but confidence in this is rather low at this time, so will leave out of the TAF for now, but will continue to monitor that potential.
On Thursday, flying conditions will still be VFR with a fairly clear sky and no precipitation. Just some additional passing cirrus will be possible for Thursday. During daytime mixing, winds will become northwest and increase to around 10 kts for all sites. Some higher gusts can't be ruled out, especially at KALB and KPSF.
